2,4-Bis(diphenyl-phosphan-yl)-1,1,2,3,3,4-hexa-phenyl-1,3-diphospha-2, 4-dibora-cyclo-butane tetra-hydro-furan sesqui-solvate

Abstract

In the title compound, C60H50B2P 4·1.5C4H8O, the diphospha-diborane mol-ecule lies on an inversion centre, whereas the disordered tetra-hydro-furan solvent mol-ecule is in a general position with a partial occupancy of 0.75. The diphosphadiborane mol-ecule consists of an ideal planar four-membered B 2P2 ring with an additional phenyl and a-PPH2 group attached to each B atom.
